d angrily, Chen Kuqing watched the commotion with amusement, instructed a junior brother to lead the way, and handed Qin Sang a jade slip. "Brother Qin, this is a route map. The Hanging Skull Guard sh...Before Gu Tiannan and his disciples could subdue the youth in black, Qin Sang already heard roars from atop the mountain. They didn't sound like human voices, but more like the howls of wild beasts.

He dashed behind a boulder and, seeing the scene in the valley below, couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.

The young man in black was covered in wounds, already at his limit. The flying needle he used had also broken, only able to hold back Gu Yuan.

What's even more terrifying is Gu Tiannan's current appearance. His entire face is unrecognizable, his flesh and blood swollen and bulging all over. He is now twice as tall as before, with thick limbs covered in veins. His hands and feet resemble animal claws, transforming into a monstrously ugly beast.

Gu Tiannan let out a horrifying roar from his throat, his bloodshot eyes fixed on the young man in black robes. There was only endless madness in his eyes, not a shred of sanity.

>

From his appearance, one couldn't see a trace of Gu Tiannan's original self; he had completely lost his humanity.

Gu Tiannan not only moved like the wind, but his physical body was also extraordinarily strong. His ten fingers were like knives, easily crushing giant rocks. Relying solely on his physical strength, he made the young man in black robes run for his life.

The young man in black robes' attacks were completely ineffective against him, like striking ironclad steel; not even a mark was left.

As the cat demon had said, Gu Tiannan's destructive power at this time was comparable to that of a cultivator at the thirteenth level of the Qi Refining period. He didn't know what method he used to hide it, but he had completely concealed himself before and left no trace at all!

The young man in black robes was completely suppressed by Gu Tiannan and finally couldn't hold on any longer. Before he died, he cast a glance at the place where Qin Sang and Bai Mao were hiding. Even from so far away, Qin Sang could still clearly feel the intense hope in his eyes.

'Bang!'

Here is the text translated into English:

The young man in black was struck on the back by Gu Tiannan's claws, falling heavily to the ground. Just as he was about to get up, Gu Tiannan grabbed his throat with one hand, cutting off his air and killing him completely.

'...hehehehe...'

Gu Tiannan bent over, gasping for breath, gripping the black-robed youth's neck tightly. His arms trembled violently, as if struggling to control his murderous instinct.

Seeing this, Gu Yuan hurriedly retracted his short sword and rushed behind Gu Tiannan, wielding several silver needles that pierced into Gu Tiannan's head. He shouted, "Master!"

When awakened by Gu Yuan, Tian Nan's eyes gradually lost their bloodshot hue, regaining a sliver of clarity. Finally, reason prevailed, and his body emitted a series of 'cackling' sounds before returning to its human form. His face was even paler than before.

Gu Tiannan's body swayed, almost falling to the ground, and was caught by Gu Yuan.

"Ahem... Hurry!"

Gu Tiannan coughed violently, his voice unusually weak and urgent, "Quick! Quickly, get the heart!"

Gu Yuan hurriedly responded, supporting Gu Tiannan to sit on the ground. He knelt down beside the young man in black and reached into his chest, pulling out a bloody heart and handing it to Gu Tiannan.

The heart pumped out blood that was a vibrant red, but the heart itself had an eerie bluish-black tinge.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Gu Tiannan grabbed his heart, greedily staring at it with unusually hot eyes. Suddenly, he coughed violently a few times, his face changing drastically. He imbued his fingers with spiritual energy and rapidly tapped on the heart several times.

A sudden spasm tore through his heart, and a surge of black demonic flames erupted, burning and melting into a pool of pitch-black liquid before solidifying into two pills: one large and one small.

Just like two pills of cinnabar.

Gu Tiannan tossed the smaller one to Gu Yuan, then eagerly swallowed the pill.

Gu Yuan also took the pill with excitement and swallowed it.

After the master and apprentice had swallowed the pills, they sat down to refine them. In a short time, a faint blush appeared on Gu Tiannan's face. His previous weakness disappeared completely, and his complexion improved considerably.

Gu Yuan was even more delighted, moaning with satisfaction. He opened his eyes and asked, "Master, how are you feeling"

Gu Tiannan let out an "hmm" and checked his body. He nodded, saying with immense relief, "Fortunately, I got this Blood Heart Pill in time, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable."

"This kid is too tough to deal with!" said Gu Yuan angrily.

Gu Tiannan let out a cold snort. "If it weren't for that cat demon who suddenly appeared, with their bizarre tactics, escaping our grasp several times, how could they have run rampant for so long! Oh, and..."

Gu Tiannan suddenly raised his head to look at the source of the sound. The surging azure light seemed to be filled with turbulent waves, constantly churning and rolling, clearly indicating that a fierce battle was raging within.

"Is there any movement from the surname Qin"

“Master, rest assured,” Gu Yuan loosened his joints, “I’ve been watching that spot the whole time. That Qin Shi Shu looks weak, yet he’s managed to hold off that cat demon. The blue light hasn’t dissipated, they’ve been fighting non-stop, there’s no way they would have noticed our movements.”

Gu Tiannan nodded, glanced at the chaotic battlefield, “That’s good, first clean up here, lest it be found out. Don't underestimate him, I think this person is cunning and deep-minded, probably not simple, don't let him see through your flaws.”

The master and apprentice immediately began to work. Gu Tiannan carefully examined the traces on the corpse of the young man in black.

Gu Yuan used his short sword to hack and slash, creating a diversion to obscure the traces Gu Tiannan had left on the battlefield. He tentatively asked, "Master, what about over there It looks like that Master Qin might end up in a stalemate with the cat demon."

Gu Tiannan glared fiercely at him, "This is Shaohuashan. Even if we're careful, it's impossible to erase all traces. This time we almost had an accident. You dare to touch someone from Shaohuashan Are you tired of living"

Gu Yuan laughed and said, “Master, you also said before that we need to find a new place. It’s a bit unfulfilling to leave without making a fortune. If Master Qin can really kill the cat demon, we will naturally not provoke him. If he is killed by the cat demon, this kind of thing is common. We can only say that he is inferior in skill. Shaohua Mountain can’t blame us. I think Master Qin has a lot of wealth. After we lose the protection of Shaohua Mountain, that flying shuttle could be very useful…”

At this time, the man and the cat quietly retreated.

The white cat said with lingering fear, “In our previous encounters with Gu Tiannan, he wasn't this terrifying and insane. Master, can you believe it now We don't ask for your help to kill him, just that you would show compassion for those poor souls killed by Gu Tiannan, and report this matter truthfully to your sect. Any righteous immortal sect should not tolerate such a demon wreaking havoc on the world.”

Qin Sang's face was always thoughtful. Upon hearing this, she glanced at the white cat and said, "None of the villagers in Heitiao Gulch died. Gu Tiannan, as long as he isn't an idiot, would definitely sense something is amiss. By the time I get reinforcements from the sect, he will have already fled."

>

The white cat let out a soft sigh, “Black Child can’t bring himself to do it. He only kills wicked people.”

Qin Sang's brow furrowed slightly; he was thinking about Gu Tiannan.

There is no doubt that Gu Tiannan's realm is indeed the thirteenth level of the Qi Refining Period.

When Gu Tiannan left the sect, he was only at the eighth level of Qi Refining. At his age, breaking through to the ninth level could be considered lucky. Otherwise, there would be no need to hide his true cultivation level out of fear of being suspected.

He shouldn't have reached the thirteenth level of the Qi Condensation Stage, it’s highly abnormal. It must be the result of that demonic cultivation technique!
